Adobe Developers Live returns to San Jose
Adobe Developers Live returns to Adobe’s San Jose, California headquarters, October 22–23, 2026. A day and a half built for the people who build on AEM and Commerce, together, live and in person.
Join Cedric Huesler as well as presenters from Accenture, Arbory Digital, Diva-e, Magneto IT Solutions and others as they share how to build what's next, where the web is headed, and how to harness agents for speed as well as governance.
We’ll cover topics and solutions on capabilities shipping now, with real stories from customers and partners already running in production. You’ll get direct time with the product and engineering leaders building AEM and Commerce, so bring your hardest questions. We’ll close with hands-on labs, so you leave having built something, not just watched someone else build it.

Build What’s Next
25 Aug 2026
Kick off Adobe Developers Live with a fast-moving look at the future of digital experiences, from Edge Delivery Services and AEM to Commerce, agents, LLM apps, and brand visibility, with architecture insights, and developer-focused announcements
AI-Powered development with AEM CS & AEM Edge Functions
1 Sep 2026
Use AI as a productivity boost for the AEM Java-stack. Your IDE's coding agent leverages Agent Skills for AEM Component development and invokes the AEM MCP Server to deploy pipelines, which can be troubleshooted by AEM-hosted skills.
Finally, see how Edge Delivery Services pages can leverage AEM Edge Functions for personalized content with the Adobe Managed CDN
Adobe Commerce Developer Agent walkthrough
3 Sep 2026
Join this session to get an inside look at the recently released Commerce MCP as well as how to take your Commerce development to the next level with the Commerce Development Agent. And stick around until the end where we'll share an unreleased feature that will bring your storefront even closer to done.
Use AI to streamline content operations in AEM
4 Sep 2026
Go beyond the AEM UI and custom scripts to automate content operations with AI. Learn how natural language can be used to manage headless and headful content in AEM. We’ll show how AI can ingest Figma designs, analyze content, generate reports, make bulk updates, and more.
Experience Workspace - the agentic content engine
8 Sep 2026
An introduction to agentic authoring with Experience Workspace — and the mechanics behind it. See how the visual and doc-style canvas, conversational creation via Coworker, and skills/MCP/memory work together to help brands produce relevant content at scale.
Gated Content at the Edge: Building Closed User Groups with AEM and Edge Delivery Services.
8 Sep 2026
This session demonstrates how to build a secure portal with AEM and Edge Delivery Services using a closed-user-groups pattern. Authors define page-level access restrictions in a simple spreadsheet — mapping pages to the groups allowed to view them. When the spreadsheet is published, these rules are translated into custom HTTP headers served alongside the content.
A customized edge worker, deployed on a CDN layer in front of aem.live, intercepts every request and enforces access control in real time based on the visitor's authentication status and group membership. The result is a fully authored, high-performance gated experience — with no custom backend required.
Build Conversational Experiences with Adobe LLM Apps
Coming soon | 18 Sep 2026
Your customers are already asking ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini about your products, but today your brand shows up as flat, scraped text they can't buy, book, or check availability from. Learn how Adobe LLM Apps turns the AEM content you already have into an MCP server that exposes real actions and on-brand widgets inside every major AI assistant, with the same authoring and governance you use for your website. Watch four brand apps built live in under 15 minutes with no code, and see the new intent analytics that show you what customers actually asked.
